This year for New Year’s, Jake and I will be volunteering at a New York Road Runners race in Central Park. I am sad to miss out on jazzing up my hair, make-up and clothes, so I decided to throw a few suggestions on here for you!

Jessica Alba’s teased pony tail is perfect and simple. Especially if you are going crazy with your make up or jewelry. Just tease the front and top of your hair/head, smooth out, and throw into a pony! Or a bun. Either way, hot.

Dian Krueger’s side braid is another cute option. I like this look because I see so many possibilities of variation. It’s romantic and soft. Plus Diane is one of those ladies who pretty much nails every look.

If you love to wear your hair down (I’ve been there! I have gone through phases where I only wear my hair down for months and months) you can always do the safe, but never dull, loose waves. Rachel Bilson looks amazing. Also, PINK lips! I have a great shade from a no name pharmacy company that I don’t know how I found.

What are your plans? Do you do fancy on New Year’s?
